Abstract

The expression of E-cadherin on Langerhans cells (LC) is required for adequate dendrite intercalation between epidermal keratinocytes. Upon disruption of epidermal homeostasis by tape stripping, E-cadherin competent LC extend dendrites reaching up to the epidermal surface, while E-cad deficient LC lack this ability.
